Spanish Chicken

4 boneless, skinless chicken breast halves
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 medium onion, chopped
1/4 chopped green pepper ( I didn't use this)
1 garlic clove, minced
1 can diced tomatoes undrained
1 cup water
3/4 c. uncooked rice
2 teaspoons chicken bouilion granules
1 tsp chili powder
1/8 tsp ground cinnamon
1/8 tsp ground cumin
1/8 tsp pepper
1/2 c picante sauce
1/2 c shredded cheddar cheese
1 can sliced ripe olives, drained

In large skillet, brown chicken in oil for 2-3 minutes on each side. Remove and keep warm. In the same skillet, saute the onion, green pepper and garlic until tender. Stir in the tomatoes, water, rice, bouilion and seasonings. Bring to a boil. Pour into a greased 11 in X 7 in X 2 in baking dish, top with chicken.

Cover and bake at 350 degrees for 35-40 minutes or until rice is tender. Uncover, spoon picante sauce over chicken and sprinkle with cheese. Bake 5 minutes longer or until cheese is melted. Garnish with olives.
